HP Pavilion Slimline Media Center s7320n

HP Pavilion Slimline Media Center s7320n

review

The entry-level desktop market is growing more crowded as prices continue to drop. A good example of this is HP's new Pavilion Slimline Media Center s7320n PC ($549.99 direct without monitor). This unintimidating box takes up much less space than many of the towers found at this price, yet it manages to house enough power and media capabilities to please any newbie computer user. It would also work well for a family that's adding a second or third PC.
